Your thoughts on bows
I have been hunting with my bow for nine years. It is definately time for a change. My question is, what would be a good bow that does not cost a fortune? I only hunt whitetails. Also due to a back injury i have to limit myself to 50-60#'s. Thanks for any info.

RE: Your thoughts on bows
Thank you for your thoughts. Bows have gotten more complex in nine years. Hard to know what is good. The only feature i think i definately have to have is a one cam system. Am i right in that respect? I would like to find something decent for under $300.

Look at Martin, PSE and Reflex. They all have decent bows in the price range you're looking at.
There are very good used bows out there too, if you know enough about bows to pick the pearls from the poop. I see a lot of what used to be top of the line bows 10 years back that are going for under $100. The guy that shot the Texas state record whitetail here a couple years ago was shooting an old PSE he got in a pawn shop for a whopping $75.

I shoot the CW33 - short compact bow, weighs under 4 pounds, 35-63lbs draw weight, and 80% letoff.
Got mine for under $350 new.
